Wildflower meadows are beautiful; so beautiful in fact that a village in Britain has found they act as natural speed traps from motorists slowing down to look at them.
The village of Long Newnton in Gloucestershire has a problem with fast moving through-traffic between nearby towns. Almost all drivers moving through areas they frequent will break posted speed limits, and neither a 30 mile per hour limit, nor warning signs made any difference.
Officials first planted flowers along the roadside during the pandemic to help improve biodiversity.
But they noticed that as well as attracting more wildlife, motorists also slowed down when they passed the flowers.
#good news#good news network#wild flowers#meadow#speeding#Long Newnton#Gloucestershire#the article says that people might be slowing because they realise they're in an area that's being cared for#but I like to think they want to see the flowers better#'And then my heart with pleasure fills'#'and dances with the daffodils'#biodiversity#oh brave new world
